Decision Maker: Executive Member (Customer, Streetscene and Environment)

Outcome:

Is Key Decision?: Yes

Is Callable In?: Yes

Purpose:

Content: Recommendations approved.   Reasons for recommendations 1.      The absence of a liquid fuel supply contract will lead to reliance on commercial fuel stations which would be more expensive and operationally inefficient.  2.      Awarding the contract will ensure that the Council complies with Contract Procedure Rules (CPRs) and procurement regulations.   Other options considered and rejected To restart the procurement exercise was rejected. Given the lead times involved, it would extend the period without a contract and there is no guarantee a new procurement process would achieve better value for the Council.  

Date of Decision: February 5, 2026
